the opening price would rule lower than fol
several years past, when prices opened at Il
fairly good figure, then fell as the season

fact. and taking advantage of their exper,

they held on and got lower prices, unload
their stock at the beginning, and then after
prices 90 up kick themselves for doing so.
OF course, many heavy growers would no:

An effort will be made during this session. of the legislature to pass such a law as will secure a more equitable valuation of prop ertv in the different counties of the Territory so that the burden of tax ation may be more equally borne. Under the present mode of assess ing values, no two counties in the Territory place the same value on the different classes of live stock while the difference between the assessments of the same grades of stock cattle in different counties of ten amounts to several<dollars per head. While this makes no differ ence so far ae county taxes are con cerned, in the levying of Territo- rial taxes, 1t does and amounts to a much larger sum being returned as taxes by the counties where the higher rate of valuation Is the rule
 han where a low assessmsnt is made.-Hoof and Horn.
The St. Johns herald., 1887-01-20


 We recommend our readers to carefully peruse and then immc- diatelv set to work to act upon the suggestions made by Brewster Cam eron in the following letter address ed to the Hoof and Horn:
 Mir. Cameron says: Section 1 of an act to prevent the introduction of diseased cattle into the Territory of Arizona provides that 'it shall be unlawful for any person or cor pOration to drive or transport, or cause to be driven or transported into the Territory of Arizona, any cattle which are, or within twelve months prior to their introduction into this Territory, have been af- fected with or exposed to any con tagious or infectious disease, or which within such period have been driven or transported from or through any district of country where such disease was known to exist at the time of such driving" etc.
 The above law gives the Governor of Arizona ample power to declare against every State affected with or exposed to pleuro-pneumonia,w what ever quarantine may be found nec- essary to protect our herds against that dread contagion. Science has demonstrated the fact that a three months quarantine is required to give security against pleuro-pneu- monia. Immediately after the out break at Chicago, the live stock in- terests of Michigan requested the Governor of that State to declare a quarantine against the State of Illi- nois. which was promptly done, Other States have also quarantined against the State of Illinois, but Arizona, with everything at stake, has done nothing. Our Governor  is believed to be in hearty sympa- thy with the live stock industry. ever ready to promote its welfare, but the cattlemeh of the Territory are asleep.

The international Range ASso- ciation which meets at Denver. on
 he Sth of next month, will be one of the most important gathering of plains cattle men that has ever been held. Never, before, in the .,istory of this important industry,
 rave questions of such vital im- portance to the welfare of those en-
 aged in cattle raising, been forced Ipon them. The monopoly at Chi
 ago threatening to impOverish
 ,lem on the one hand, and pleuro- pneumonia, unless checked and
 onfned to its present boundaries, a still more serious and certain source of loss on the other. Our ;attlemen should take steps at once to more closely unite for self-pro- tection from both these calamities. 1t is false reasoning to think we are in no dangcr-that the distance be- tween the disease and our herds is so great that We are comparatively safe. We must remember that con- tagious diseases of this nature will travel like cholera-cross entire countries-and that once 1t gets a foot-hold, there will be no check ing it, until there is nothing left for it tO feed on.

A WASHINGTON special says: The pres
ident did not fill the vacancy upon the
supreme court bench before he left for his
two weeks fishing trip, and those who
ought to be informed upon the subject say
he will not be hasty in making a selection.
The judges have been able to do all the
business of the circuit without assistance
from any of the justices of the supreme
court sitting as circuit Judges, and they
will probably be able to do this until Octo
Der. The circuit to which Justice Woods
was assigned was one in which the court
business is not as great as in the other cir.
cults and the district and circuit judges are
not so much overworked.
There is but one point upon which there
is q general agreement among the friends
Of the administration with respect TO the
vacancy, and that is that the president
will select the successor of Justice Woods
from the circuit from which Mr.. Woods
was himself appointed. The friends Of
Randolph Tucker, of Virginia, do not
think he will limit himself to that partic.
ular circuit, but hat he will appoint n

A CHILD'S SKIN.
Ears and Scalp Covered with Ecze-
matous Scabs and Sores,
Cured by Cuticura.

MY little son.. aged 8 years, has been
afflicted with Eczema of the scalp,
aud at times a great portion of the body,
ever since he was 2 years old. II began
III his ears, and extended to his scalp,
which became covered with scabs and
sores and from which a sickly fluid poured
out, causing intense itching and distress,
and leaving his hair matted and lifeless
Underneath these scabs the skin was raw
like a piece Of beefsteak. Grad 1ally the
hair came out and was destroyed, until
but a small patch was left at the back OF
the head. My friends In Peabody know
how my little boy has suffered. At night
he would scratch his head until his pillow
was covered with blood. | used to tie his
hands behind him and in many ways tried
10 prevent his scratching; but it was of no
use; he would scratch. | took him to the
hospital and to the best physicians in Pea
body without success. About this time
some friends who had been cured by the
Cuticura Remedies prevailed upon me to
try them. | began to use them on the
18th of January last. In seven months
every particle Of the disease was removed.
Not a spot or scaD remains on his scalp to
tell the story of his suffering. His hair
has returned and is thick and strong and
nlS scalp rs sweet ana clean as any cnllQ 8
in the world. | cannot say enough to ex
press my gratitude for this wonderful cure
by the Cuticura Remedies, and wish all
similarly afflicted to know that my state
ment is true and without exaggeration.

The reported plan for the consolidation
Of immense cattle interests, which was
given in a Nelos special, is believed to be
part Of the scheme of the American Cattle
Trust, which not only contemplaUes estab-
fishing fair markets, but also the closest
reduction in the expense of managing
herds. This enterprise, the details of
which are yet withheld, has attracted a
great deal of attention and favorable COM
ment throughout the country. The little
that has been made known has inspired
widespread confidence which has already
benefited the industry. Should its ulti-
mate success respond to public anticipa-
ton, the result will reflect the highest
credit on the executive and business abil.
ity Of President R. G. Head. of the Inter
national Range Association, who has been
evolving this important project for a year.
1t may be questioned if any other man
could have inspired the confidence neces
sary for the combination of 30 much capi-
tai and brains. The work was to save an
industry threatened with hopeless ruin.
1t is fortunate that the range interests
could furnish the man for the emergency,
for success required the confidence and CO.
operation of those interests. Mr.. Head
had the prestige of marvellous success and
unquestioned probity. The sequel has
